I would like to start by congratulating us all for a job well done! While the COVID threat is still real it appears as though our hard work has flattened the curve and life is starting to return to normal. It is with great excitement to announce that the clinic will be accepting appointments starting today! In order to meet our commitment to patient safety, we have changed our booking procedures to include pre-screening questions and staggered appointments to help ensure phy...sical distancing is maintained in our clinic. We are asking patients to help us maintain a healthy and safe environment in our clinic by answering pre-screening questions truthfully and following the new procedures in the clinic. To book an appointment, please call us at 780-482-7617 or email us at [email protected]. Remember, if you have experienced a fever, cough, runny nose or difficulty breathing in the last two weeks we will need to know prior to booking. Thank you for your patience and understanding. We look forward to treating you and appreciate your support to help maintain a safe environment in our clinic. Health & Happiness, Dr. Moe Gebara

Dear ActiveCare Patients, A lot of patients have been calling into the clinic and sending emails with their questions. I would like to thank all of you for your calls. Please do not hesitate to call the clinic’s phone number as I have it forwarded and am doing my best to work from home. When we were advised to suspend regular office treatments I knew that my patients were still going to need care. I have taken many steps to be able to work from home in the last week and I ...have noticed that working from home full time is not as easy as I thought. Taking a step back I realized that during this crisis more people are working from home who don’t have the same ergonomic setup as they did in their workplace. You might not have an ergonomic workstation in your home. But we've got your back. Working or learning from home doesn't have to be painful. And a setup that keeps you and your family pain-free doesn't have to be expensive. 5 simple ways to work in comfort and protect your spinal health. Lift your laptop If you're using your laptop at the kitchen table, it might be positioned too low. Place a few books or a shoebox underneath it so you are looking directly at the screen. This is easy to adjust for your smaller family members and will stop you from leaning forward and bending your necks. Raid the linen closet No cushy desk chair? No problem. Slip a thin cushion under your seat and a rolled-up towel behind your lower back. This lumbar support will help to prevent low back pain. Stand up You don't need an expensive standing desk. A simple hack like placing a large cardboard box on your kitchen table can raise your laptop enough to be effective. Try to alternate between sitting and standing. We recommend standing while on calls or watching videos to get started. Go wireless Wireless gadgets are affordable game-changers. A wireless headset can relieve the strain an extended cell phone call puts on your neck. Wireless keyboard & mouse combinations allow you to keep a comfortable typing position while elevating your screen as needed. Stretch it out Make sure every family member takes time to move at least once an hour. Neck rolls, shoulder rolls, and gentle spinal twists will help keep you flexible. Finally, don't forget to take plenty of breaks. This is a stressful time, and it's important to give yourself the physical and mental space to stay healthy.

Telehealth Visits During Closure Dear Patients, When I informed the clinic last week that we would be temporarily suspending regular appointments due to our current COVID-19 crisis I had no idea what the next week would bring. While the COVID-19 virus is spreading world-wide is appears that our efforts of good hygiene and social distancing is working in Edmonton to keep the spread at a minimum compared to other parts of the world. I just wanted to take a moment to commend all... of you on your efforts on containing the spread of this new disease and to keep up the good work! Fortunately the province of Alberta has allowed Chiropractors in to allow to conduct Telehealth consultations. This is a process which we will be implementing in the clinic over the course of the next few days which will allow us to consult with our patients over the telephone or video calls if needed to determine if an emergency visit is required, if home care can be prescribed, or if a referral to a different medical professional is required. This is a brand new initiative and I will keep you all updated as we get more details. For now please try to stay safe, remember to keep up the exceptional hygiene practices, and we will get through this together! Sincerely, Dr. Moe Gebara
